Because I saw this video, I checked out bath, bed, and beyond and purchased it. I have never done an avocado that fast or got the seed out that safely before! I love it! Thanks for showing this
I actually use this one all the time. I eat avocados like three times a week, and just having one tool fixing it, and not switching between knife and spoon makes it such a breeze. Also I'm quite clumsy overall, so a tool without sharp edges is safer for me to use.
Ok i will :D I've just never tried them because it looked weird when you see people put them on subs like subway or how people mash them up and put it on Hamburgers
@@avocadolovers8478 If you cut it into fourths rather than just in half you don't have to scrape it out with a spoon. you can just peel off the skin. faster, cleaner, and less dishes.
Jack, what do you mean you don't "normally" review single-use items? How many uses did the microwave bacon cup, meatloaf pan, Eggies, Ez-Cracker, Egg-Geneie, Potato-Mitts, Perfect Tortilla pan, etc, etc,etc have? One!
it is. if you buy six of em you pay six dollars. thats a lot when youre e.g. a student like me. you can get 10 apples for like 3 dollars tho, or a huge net of oranges. so yeah, it is expensive. esp when avocado is considered an exotic fruit in a country :/
Avocados are my fav i can eat it with anything and with out anything 2 yum yumm every day all day breakfast lunch and dinner and snaks lov lov love them
Nice review i eat avocados a lot and they are a bit of a pain to prep, the hardest part is getting the stone out. That looked like the stone came out easily and it's from oxo so i can get hold of those in England. thanks for the review i think i'll pick one of these up
Hmmm. Your right. I hated all of them even though some worked nicely. They are no longer in my kitchen. What I should have said is, "I don't keep one use items in my kitchen" Thanks for pointing that out.
I find when I try to use a spoon I end up causing more damage than I'd like to the flesh of the avocado. I found that cutting it into little cubes makes it easy to pull out and eat as a snack.
As TonixTech said, it would be great for kids to use on strawberries, eggs, bananas or anything else soft enough to cut/slide with the plastic blades. The pit remover is a uni-tasker, but otherwise there is a lot of potential in the kitchen for this.
..."Jack Jr. used it and liked it - but that 'doesn't mean anything" How rude!!! Way to be positive for the kid. I'm sure any future opinions he might want to share will be stunted by your inconsideration. I enjoy your reviews and have commented before that I thought you all were a nice family. Still do. And it's cool you allow him to do the occasional kids review. His opinion 'does mean something'. Hope that was just an 'unthinking' moment on your part.
Jack there are 2 kinds of avocados that are generally sold in supermarkets. There are the big ones and then the small ones. I think the small ones are more expensive because they are generally "riper". Can't remember for sure though.
There are different types of Avocados The most common types are: Bacon, Fuerte, Gwen, Hass, Pinkerton, Reed, and Zutano the Hass being the most common and one that is smaller then some of the others. there are about 500 types but the ones mentioned above are the most common and come from California. The one you said was larger then your fist as a child was probably not a Hass because the Hass is one of the smaller ones.
very cool gadget... went and looked on Amazon... 10 bucks... I am so getting me one. I ♥ avocado but hate the prep part and you're right, the seed is slimy and messy. Thanks for this review, was very helpful. OXO should be happy. :-)
I just added Avocados to my daily Breakfast plan, so I'm definitely going to purchase this! Whomever invented this, IS A GENIUS! Too bad it wasn't me! LOL
I'm glad you're not making reviews for the sake of bashing on products anymore. It might just be me though- I really hate it when people complain and complain.
avocados taste much better with salt/salty foods i think, ive tried avocado smoothies, i guess its an acquired taste. sliced over a real corn tortilla with some salt is as basic as it gets and its the best
I hope you didn't mean it when you said jack jr used it and liked it but that it didn't mean anything... :/ that's not a very nice thing to hear from your dad I'm sure , that your opinion doesn't matter :(
1:05 I don't know Jack. It could be that the avocados were bigger back in the days, but I think that the main reason for this is that your hand has gotten bigger since you were a kid ;)
I did too... the first time I ate one. Had a weird texture, and disgusted me by the first half. Second time I was on a "my body requires the fuel of champions" feel, and I ate an avocado without any problems. Unless you hate the nutty flavour, try variations. They have a good nutty taste, and are extremely healthy.
this could all be done with one knife: 1 cut the avacado in half. 2 turn the avacado where you cut it. 3. hit the seed with the knife. 4 twist the knife. 5. lift up the seed. 6. place the avacado half so the skin is facing up. cut it into strips and peel.
you may think avocados are expensive when you compare their price to some other ready-to-eat meals, fast food, etc. however i much rather pay a dollar or even more to eat an avocado knowing all of the health benefits you can get from it such as: Eye Health, Lower Cholesterol, Heart Health, Stroke Prevention, Better Nutrient Absorption, Glutathione Source, Vitamin E, etc. all that you can get from eating these beautiful and delicious Mexican avocados.
Hey jack where did you buy this? I think it would be a funny gift for my aunt because every time she tries taking the seed out of an Avocado she ends up cutting her self. In fact she has cut herself so many times that she has cut a nerve in her hand. She is so scared to cut an avocado now. So I want to gift this to her as a birthday gift. Thanks!

When you were a kid, your hands were much smaller. I suspect the fruit is the same size.
Thats what I was gong to say.
Not really I have seen avocados way bigger then those

Mom: What are you doing awake? Me: I'm watching a man cut open avocados mother Mom:..... Go to sleep... Me: k *continues watching*
He didn't use a spoon to scrape out the avocado remnants. This makes me sad.
+Josh cramer Joining you...
I feel your pain
My mom got this and it really does work!
go to your farmers market we get 3 avocados for $1 and they are delicious.
I really want one of these now! I eat avocados like they're going out of style. :)
lol, me too!!! Don't understand people who hate them. Not possible! haha! :)
Do avacodos even have a flavor?
@ Bogh3 they are awesome! I can't describe it - go eat one and see! :)
Ok i will :D I've just never tried them because it looked weird when you see people put them on subs like subway or how people mash them up and put it on Hamburgers
BOGH3 Sprinkle a little salt and pepper on them, delicious! :)
Interesting little gadget. My mom loves avocado so this would make an awesome gift for her. Thanks for the review.
My knife cuts it, removes pit and slices it.
+thegoldenstatue stephano Yea, but then you have to use a spoon to scrape it?
Good for you
Then how to scoop out?

yes. look for my slow cooked pot roast or my pulled pork video. I love my crockpot. I have another crockpot video coming in a week or two.
I must say that it comes in handy if you make homemade guacamole. There are many avocados that need cutting.
Avocado is good to buy all year round or no? I heard that but I'm not too familiar with them..
Avocados are my fav i can eat it with anything and with out anything 2 yum yumm every day all day breakfast lunch and dinner and snaks lov lov love them
Must get this! Jack do you recall the price of this gadget?

Don't forget the Fasta Pasta! I bought one over a year ago based on your video Jack, and it's the only thing I use to cook spaghetti
Hmmm. Your right. I hated all of them even though some worked nicely. They are no longer in my kitchen. What I should have said is, "I don't keep one use items in my kitchen"

Kitchen gadgets are the coolest thing ever...even if I prefer a knife and a spoon, it's still kinda cool.
I usually eat avocados raw with a little bit of sweetened condensed milk. It's delicious!

That's pretty cool! And I do that too! Just eat the avocado with some salt and I put some pepper too with a spoon...best snack ever! :)
A cross between artichoke and cucumber come to mind.. there's really nothing quite like it. The texture is like cold butter.
Here in Puerto Rico, in Avocado season, Avocados are really common and cheap, ohh and their giant!
Your complaining that the avocados are $1? In australia they're $5 each!!
Get real.
Koji 888 The healthcare isn’t free nothing if it most likely deducted to their taxes.
Yeah avocados in the UK are super expensive, I only get them if they’re on offer!!
they're 50 cents here 😂
@@poopdaddy493 Its not because of taxes, it's because of shipping costs.
What a great tool!! I love avocado so definitely I have to buy that thing. Nice video!
sweet! Im gonna start living by myself next year. plan on getting 1 myself because its such a great thing
saw it at my local grocery store, I wanted it n now I'm gonna go buy it=)
I want this! Avocados are one of my favourite vegetables
Great gadget! I would use this. Thanks, and Jack!

Thanks for this video! Now I know this avocado slicer will work. :)
the avocados are big in south texas like grapefruits c: and i love your show i watch it all the time
Can't wait till I grow up and have my own kitchen only I would be cooking in it xD
We have an avocado tree in our small farm.. I hate avocadoes but they're my mom's fave.
I was thinking the same thing. I love gadgets so bing it on jack. I think you should do a Wenesday gadget video day
sounds awesome, but I prefer multitaskers. i'm not sure what else I could do with a 3 in 1 avocado slicer.
I want now. They need to make one for avocados in Hawaii. They're huuuge. Though they are much easier to peel and deal with.
my mom and dad love this video so do i
Avocados yum can it work on other vegetables or fruit??
I know it is just meant for Avocado's but you could probably use it on peaches, or cooked and cooled potatoes.
Jack there are 2 kinds of avocados that are generally sold in supermarkets. There are the big ones and then the small ones. I think the small ones are more expensive because they are generally "riper". Can't remember for sure though.
I might actually try this, if I can find it on sale someplace... :) I love avocado!!
Great episode. :-) When you were a kid, your fist was smaller; hence the avocado were bigger.
You can you the slicer part for hard boiled eggs as well!
You can tell if an avocado is ripe by whether you're able to push in the stem easily (like a button).
Also good for boiled eggs and strawberries.
I have it too and it's awesome

My grandparents have an avocado tree in their backyard!! :)
Nice product
in bed bath & beyond! it's $10 each! you could find it online too!
Good Video... I just bought one. Thank you
I think he means an item that is ultra specific, like a tomato press - whose purpose is de-seed tomatoes and that's it.
Super appreciated this tyvm fam
You could use it to cut kiwi fruit, too, I think. The slicer might even work, too.

Hmm sounds interesting. I ought to try that!
Where can I buy one
That's actually pretty cool
Funny, when I was 11 I put a spoon in and put sugar instead or salt.
+Toys of Toys Was it tasty?
I did too... the first time I ate one. Had a weird texture, and disgusted me by the first half. Second time I was on a "my body requires the fuel of champions" feel, and I ate an avocado without any problems.

I adore this avo gadget. Have one. Love anything OXO!!!!!
Nice! I'm getting one!
I wish I liked Avacado, that looks like a fun little tool.
1$ is not alot
You made my eyebrows go up!...
I swear when he sliced it my jaw hit the floor
Genius! I'm good up until the slicing I can never slice without them mushing and falling apart!
lol ive never eating a Avocado before ..how does it taste ?
I have this!!
it's cool, easy and clean :)
this could all be done with one knife: 1 cut the avacado in half. 2 turn the avacado where you cut it. 3. hit the seed with the knife. 4 twist the knife. 5. lift up the seed. 6. place the avacado half so the skin is facing up. cut it into strips and peel.
i want one now :S, but good luck finding them here in Sweden
Genius !!! I'm good up until then slicing then it always gets all mushy :(
I would also put a spoon in and asome salt thats reminds I AM EATING ONE RIGHT KNOW
Well, where I come from it is 2 euros per piece, that is 2.6 usd accoriding to google. I didn't say I buy them much though :D
cool! i gotta have that!!!
